Prince William’s tribute to Kate Middleton
In the footage, which has amassed over 660,000 views on TikTok, Prince William candidly shares his bittersweet connection with Scotland.
The future King acknowledges Scotland as a source of both his “happiest memories” and his “saddest.”
He poignantly recounts the solace he found in the Scottish outdoors following the tragic loss of his mother, Princess Diana, while staying at Balmoral.
However, it is the Prince’s touching tribute to his wife that has truly captured the hearts of viewers.
With palpable affection, William declares, “And yet alongside this painful memory, is one of great joy. Because it was here in Scotland—20 years ago this year—that I first met Catherine. Needless to say, the town where you meet your future wife holds a very special place in your heart.”
This heartwarming sentiment has resonated deeply with the online community, eliciting an outpouring of admiration and support for the royal couple in this difficult time.
Commenters have praised their enduring bond, with one user describing them as “soulmates,” while another remarked on their resilience, stating, “Hard times…create strong people.”
The viral video has shed light on the couple’s love story, which blossomed at the University of St Andrews in Scotland, where they first met in 2001.
Their relationship has faced numerous challenges, such as Kate’s abdominal surgery and her recent cancer diagnosis, which have prompted an outpouring of support from the public.
The Princess of Wales shared a video on March 22, reporting that she was undergoing “preventative treatment” for a cancer she was found to have after undergoing “scheduled abdominal surgery.”
“In January, I underwent major abdominal surgery in London and at the time, it was thought that my condition was non-cancerous. The surgery was successful. However, tests after the operation found cancer had been present. My medical team therefore advised that I should undergo a course of preventative chemotherapy and I am now in the early stages of that treatment,” the princess recounted.
Kate revealed the surprise and shock of her and Prince William’s cancer diagnosis, as well as the emotional and practical process they have been going through as a family.
The princess highlighted the importance of the support of her husband, Prince William, in her recovery process.
